Text	It is plainly evident now why the Atlantics were so badly whipped last Monday week by the Athletics. The Atlantics will take away the championship from the Unions by defeating them twice before the Athletics play them, and then if the Philadelphians want the championship, they will have to challenge the Atlatnics to a new series, as they have not defeated the Atlantics as champions; the Athletics having beaten the Atlantics so badly twice this year, the odds in betting circles will be nearly two to one in their favor on the first game of the new series. John Morrissey and the Brooklynites will fill their pockets for what they lost on the last game. John Morrissey would lose $20,000 when he knows he can make $100,000 the next time. It is disgraceful and mortifying to all true lovers of our national game to know that none of the first class contests in New York can be relied upon.
